Obviously the well-off families will find other strategies to regain that advantage. In the mean time the charters are a means for DC to shed the worst schools without the pain of a trilogy of 4-act operatic political fights with DCPS. At the end of the day, DC schools become more competitive with the suburbs.

yes, I'm definitely seeing this happening. One of the reasons for the charter system is that it allows DC to retain middle class families that would otherwise leave for the burbs, taking their tax base with them.
